  Seatbelt saves Merriwether teen from injury in rollover crash web posted August 5, 2008  MERRIWETHER – A
Merriwether teen escaped
injury after he ran off the side of Sweetwater Road Monday,
overcorrected, and rolled the truck into a fence. The rising Senior at
Strom Thurmond said he ran off the road and when he tried to get back
on the roadway the truck began to swerve and he lost control. Being
restrained by a seatbelt saved the teen who suffered from only minor
scrapes.The crash took place just after 1 pm as the teen was traveling south on Sweetwater Road and left the truck upside down in front of a home located on the corner of Sweetwater and Republican Road. The truck rolled at least one and a half times.  Merriwether
Firefighters, Edgefield County EMS, and Sheriff’s Deputies
arrived on the scene and found the young man shaken, but unhurt. Nearby
residents stood by and comforted the teen while the Highway Patrol
investigated the crash.The truck suffered major damage in the crash and was said to be a total loss. ©
